Random thoughts on accounting package.

Core features would be similar to [1] .

Several use-cases.

I am out shopping, and want to know how much I can spend before having next weeks bills bounce.

I want to track how much I've been spending on petrol over time.

I want to look at payments to my power company, to check they have billed me correctly.

I want to enter my upcoming bills, and their amounts, as well as income, so I can keep track of them.

There may be multiple accounts - and it should be able to handle transfers between them - say I transfer $47 on the 3rd of the month from my current account to my savings account.

Warnings of upcoming balances falling below limits, to avoid fees.


Shiny bits.

There are several possible shiny features.

OCR of cash and coins, to auto-count it.

Barcode recognition, to keep track of stuff you have, and to auto-add to a shopping list.
